On February 2nd, Candelaria Day, people go to the main church with candles. The lights
in the church are off. When they start praying they light the candles. It is a very
spiritual experience. Later at home, families share the tamales and atole from those
that got the little doll on The Wise Men Day on January 6.
On the same day, there is an opening of the flower fair in Benito Juarez park which lasts
for two weeks. People can buy all type of flowers, cacti, little trees, seeds,
fertilizer, and flower pots for their homes and gardens.
